Yeah, I typically don't get too excited over Ambers but the WCB turned out really nice!gm- wrote:Tried this at canucks house a while ago, excellent amber ale!

Re: west coast blaster
Brew day went ok I guess lol. I use a cylinder cooler and forgot about the extra grain in this recipe. She was pretty close to the top when I finally got it all mixed in. Then of coarse my temp was low because of the extra grain. Filled to the top and mixed with hot water, still to low haha. Vorlauf (term) off 1 liter and brought that to a boil, hit target this time of 150.3. Missed my taget og, came in a little low at 1058. All in all a learning experience which I should have known before hand. Think it will still be good.
